Comment on The Silent Summer: No Crickets, No Peepers! by Nellie Kennedy

I also live in Somerset county, Maine and we have always had peepers so loud that it was ‘like a jungle out there’. This year it is silent for the first time since I have lived here – 30 + years. Did you ever figure out what happened?

Along with the good looks, kitties with Livvy’s coat pattern always have great personalities!

Hi I have never met a person with the exact same name as mine. I am 65 and from Cardiff Wales.
Where do you live?

Comment on My Kitten Update by Sheri

Hi: I came across your post regarding your kitty being born without internal reproductive organs. Well, I found out that mine was also born without them. She was a country kitty when we were lucky enough to have her. My son gave her to me when he had to move. I’ve been around many cats in my life and I knew she was special. So docile, cuddly and makes a little talking sound when I talk to her. She can nearly shake the house with her purring! We have a cat fence installed around the entire perimeter of our yard, attached to the wooden fence. She is not able to get out of our back yard. She’s chipped and wears a breakaway collar. One evening she came in the doggie door with her tail fluffed out, looking very scared. I picked her up and found out that she had been sprayed by a stray who jumped over into our yard. She later became a little pudgy so I took her to the vet who xrayed her and found no babies. He checked for scars of a previous spay; none. He opened her up and found no ovaries or uterus and no testes hiding anywhere. He said that he had heard of this but had never seen it. She is healthy. He removed some of the fatty tissue which came back with no signs of cancer. I hope and pray that she lives a long life. I have never ever seen such a calm and cuddly cat.

Comment on What Summer Sheets Are Best? by Eva

hi,
I live in Europe, when it’s vey hot we use bamboo sheets. They will keep you cool. A good alternative are linen or pure silk sheets (silk is not the same as satin, silk is 100% natural). Definitely avoid all non-natural fibres like polyester, nylon, modal…

Good luck!
Eva

She must be very tall indeed! I can find Livvy, but I can't find Lily. She comes out to eat, drink, use the litter box and play with the mousey toy. Also the treats I leave for her quickly disappear, but she does too.

You can’t hide from a fellow kitty, Livvy! I see you peeping out!
